i really like how all the characters in the assassin's blade returned later in the series. i feel like most prequels were published after the series, but the prequel for throne of glass wasn't. the assassin's blade wasn't just a prequel providing some context about celaena/aelin's backstory or simply some of her adventures, but an introduction to some characters from celeaena/aelin's past who return and have importance to the plot. ansel, who i originally dismissed as just a character who was meant to affect celaena/aelin's character development, came back as the queen of the wastes and an ally to aelin. i thought aelin's trip to the red desert was supposed to be for a mentor type of experience and for her to discover a little bit of honor and morals she has left. in reality, it was also meant to introduce the reader to the silent assassins, provide a bit of backstory, and give a reason why they had a life debt owed to aelin. i think sarah j. maas plans out the plot very well and has so much foreshadowing i (stupidly) dismiss.

Who pulls the most guys???

Damn this one is tough ngl. Most of the sjm ladies hold the men by the balls🤔. but here we go: Gets next to none: Lidia Cervos- only bc of that ass Pollux. She rizzed Ruhn while still in a relationship tho so that has to count for something. Ansel of Briarcliff- Honestly I keep forgetting she exists so she’s in this category. Ariadne- being imprisoned in jewelry for years kind of keeps you from pulling anyone. She pulled Flynn within 5 seconds of release tho. Gets a few: Lysandra- Honestly she’s so low on this list bc she had to shapeshift in order to pull anyone. Also she chose Aedion. Sorry, but really? You could’ve chosen literally anyone else, why would you choose the basic blonde? Gets quite a few: Manon- she’d get more but the whole man-eating thing is kind of a turn-off for most guys. Not our murderous king Dorian tho. Nesryn- she was the second-place girl until she got a crown prince panting after her. Queen shit. Gets many: Yrene- she had Kashin following her around like a lost puppy, AND she pulled our resident girl-rizzer Chaol mfing Westfall. In a few months too. Morrigan- She doesn’t get as many bitches as she’d like, but unfortunately for her she pulls many guys like Cassian, Azriel, and Helion. The Elites: Celaena Sardothien/Aelin Galathiniyus- somehow the murderous thing doesn’t put people off as much as it should. It put Chaol off (a little bit) but he still fell in love, poor boy. Sam, Dorian, Chaol, Rowan. That’s a lot. Bryce Quinlan/Danaan- I put her slightly above Aelin bc she’s had so many partners, she doesn’t have the murderous thing to put people off, AND she rizzed Ithan unintentionally in like 5 seconds. Nesta Archeron: She had Cassian, Azriel, Helion, and Eris panting after her like dogs. In record time too. Despite doing her very best to put them off. Feyre Archeron: I mean she rizzed up three high lords. Enough said.😂 Top tier: Elain Archeron: Something about having the male pining after another girl for 500 years develop an unhealthy obsession with you, having the number 1 bitch magnet be pining after you, his mate, and having the literal CAULDRON be in love with you, with a bitchy older sister ready to kill and whore for you is just guy-pulling behavior. There’s just something about her. She’s mysterious, it draws you in. You want to know more. Why are they so protective of her? Points deducted for Graysen rejecting her tho. Elide Lochan: Come on, we all knew it was coming. Elide is number 1 without a doubt. Elide came out of a tower and walked the entire court of Terrasen+ the Thirteen like DOGS. She could pull almost anyone if she tried hard enough.

I feel like we need to talk about how easy it is to ship Elide with women

Manon and Elide? The blueprint, would’ve been married if Manon was a man, Manon learning to let people in and Elide finally having someone who is on her side and won’t act like she can’t defend herself

Lysandra and Elide? Flirty x has never been flirted with, they are the photo with the one girl on top of the other putting makeup on the girl under her

Yrene and Elide? Soft wives, the two of them slowly growing closer when Yrene is working to help Elide with her ankle and becoming comfortable with each other until everyone around thinks they’re dating when they’re not

Ansel and Elide? Elide surprising Ansel with her secret sharp tongue and and the two of them bantering with each other, they judge people at fancy parties

Asterin and Elide? Asterin allowing herself to love again and let herself open up to Elide, who learns to lower the walls she’s kept up to protect her against the cruel world they live in, Asterin could spend days praising her smart gf

Nesryn and Elide? Intimate touches when Nesryn teaches Elide to shoot a bow, Elide learning to bake so she can make pastries that remind Nesryn of home

Listen, Elide it is so easy to ship with women it’s insane

Ansel and Celaena lay on their backs on the side of a dune and stared up at the stars.

Her hands tucked behind her head, Celaena took a long, deep breath, savoring the balmy night breeze, the exhaustion ebbing from her limbs. She rarely got to see stars so bright—not with the lights of Rifthold. The wind moved across the dunes, and the sand sighed.

"You know," Ansel said quietly, "I never learned the constellations. Though I think ours are different from yours—the names, I mean."

It took Celaena a moment to realize that by ours" she didn't mean the Silent Assassins she meant her people in the Western Wastes.

Celaena pointed to a cluster of stars to their left.

"That's the dragon." She traced the shape. "See the head, legs, and tail?"

"No." Ansel chuckled.

Celaena nudged her with an elbow and pointed to another grouping of stars.

"That's the swan. The lines on either side are the wings, and the arc is its neck."

"What about that one?" Ansel said.

"That's the stag," Celaena breathed. "The Lord of the North."

"Why does he get a fancy title? What about the swan and the dragon?"

Celaena snorted, but the smile faded when she stared at the familiar constellation.

"Because the stag remains constant—no matter the season, he's always there.

"Why?"

Celaena took a long breath.

"So the people of Terrasen will always know how to find their way home. So they can look up at the sky, no matter where they are, and know Terrasen is forever with them."

(Actual) FRIENDLY REMINDER

Ansel never forgot that extra minute. She tried to save Celaena from Endovier. She pillaged Melisande for Aelin and then hung up Terrasen's flag beside her own to mark the territory. She raised an army for Aelin and was willing to try and raise another.

scrolling back through my assassin's blades notes and i found this gem:

[ansel telling celaena about what happened with the witch]:

"See, there was this archway that went through the bottom of the watchtower—so you could see through it to the other side of the hill. And one of the stable boys told my sister that if you looked through the archway on the night of the summer solstice, then you could see into another world" (pg 162)

hey sarah bestie what does this mean
